iPad Mini 6 in (2024) Review - DON’T MAKE A MISTAKE..! 

I had an iPad Pro 11 but the iPadOS limits it so much. So i sold and got the iPad Mini. Man, what a tablet. Small and light and I can do everything I did with my pro. It’s a tablet that wants to be a tablet not a computer.

I am awaiting for iPad mini 7 fingers crossed this year !!

Recently acquired the iPad mini 6 and couldn't be happier, especially transitioning from the iPad Pro 11". It perfectly meets my requirements as a dedicated media consumption device for watching videos and listening to music, distinct from my MacBook, which fulfills its own unique role as my productivity workhorse.

Great video, I have had mine since they came out, and use it way more than any other device I own. so light, the screen is amazing, and the sound is fantastic!

Literally just got mine in the mail today! Excited to use it. Great video bud!

Ordered one last night, should receive it in 3 days. I can't wait.

Had the iPad mini 5, I only upgraded to the mini 6 & Apple Pencil 2 four months ago, its my favorite apple device, I love the size & portability.

I gotta say my Mini 6 is my favorite device.

Using it and I love it. Perfect combo with my iPhone 15 pro max 🐬

The iPad Mini 6 is the best iPad ever! I sold my 2017 12.9 iPad Pro and got the Mini and I’m so glad I did. The 12.9 was too big. The mini is a pleasure to use and it’s the perfect size, IMHOP.

iPad mini 6 is my road warrior, sketching, and travel plan companion. Phone for photos. Mini for scan at home.

Love my iPad mini 6, great video! 🐬

I’ve had my iPad mini 6 for close to 6 months, I absolutely love it, it’s my idea of a portable versatile tablet that can do anything your phone can but with a bigger yet portable design. Pulling it out in public is not nearly as jarring as pulling out an 11 in iPad Pro

🐬 such a cool little device. Perfect for so many tasks.

just recived it today after i used the pro 12.9 for 5 years, JUST LOVE IT

I just got my iPad Pro 11”. Planning to buy iPad Mini 7 soon if possible

I have the exact same set up including the paperlike screen protector. The only thing I add is a metal plate to the back of the iPad so I can place it on magnetic holders.

I was questioning myself to buy a iPad Mini 6 cause already have a iPad Air and using it all the time but can’t carry it on my small sling bag. You just convinced me to by one, thanks Rjey 🐬

Great job Sir! I've been torn between buying a new iPad Pro to replace my 3rd gen model or replacing my 8 year-old 13" MacBook Air with one of the newer 15" Airs, but after watching your video, I think I'll opt for the Mini with the 15" Air to give me more flexibility. Thanks again! 🐬

I love my iPad mini 5, but now I’m torn between finally getting a 6 or waiting it out to see if/when a 7 will come out. 🐬

Great review.

I have an old iPad gen 6th that needed replacing as starting to get too slow and full. Our child broke my partner iPad so we needed a replacement for my partner and our child. I had purchased a iPad Mini for work and found it very practical fits in my back pocket. I was prepared to wait for the new iPad mini 7 expected at the end of 2024 as generally I update with the latest because of the length of time I hold onto a iPad 5-7 years. But in the end decided to buy the Mini iPad 6 for all three of us as we needed them now. We use them for consumption and it would be fine performance wise. I had considered the iPad 10th gen, nice colours but the lack of support for the 2nd gen Apple Pencil was the main reason to not go with them. The Wi-Fi changing and magnetic sticking meant it was more likely to be practical and used. The iPad mini goes well with our iPhone 13 mini, in the sense can carry both around on holidays and trips. It would have been nice to get the iPad Mini 7 but I suppose I could upgrade when it is released if compelling reasons to upgrade but likely just a chip jump that is all that will change. I actually like just one camera bump on a iPad it looks cleaner and generally I don’t take pics or videos with an iPad. Really weird how Apple hasn’t upgrade iPad for so long. Anyway my reasons for buying an iPad Mini 6 in 2024. It is still good to use.

Swapped my 12.9 iPad Pro after having it for a year last year for the Mini. Had no need for it since I have a MBA. Plus bringing the Pro to work everyday to read or watch tv during lunch was annoying. My first iPad back 12 years ago was a Mini and after going back I gotta say the iPad Mini is the perfect tablet for my needs. I’ll def upgrade to the 7 whenever Apple releases it.

🐬 love your review. !

Great video! I have an iPad Pro 11” and M3 MacBook Pro, and I still feel compelled to buy this smaller unit. Also, I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max My MacBook is for major schoolwork on the go and some photo editing. My large iPad is for business meetings. It's less intrusive than my 14-inch laptop. My question to you is, do you think the iPad mini six would be a great addition to this ecosystem for tablets and gaming? I assume yes.

The iPad mini 6 is a solid choice & as you say it is great for travelling 🙏👍

🐬enjoyed this. I have an air 5 th generation .. lookng at ino on new airs and do not seem much difference. I had a mini several years ago and enjoyed it.

My next Apple purchase! 🐬

Same! I love touch ID, I hate that they even got rid of it at one point

Can we use latest ipad as main or portable display for mac mini ?

I’m waiting for iPad Mini 7!! But I’m sooo ready…

🐬Thanks for the review.

Nice video. I have a IPad Pro M2 12.9, which I use for everything, Notability, Photos,etc. I’m wanting to get the IPad Mini 6 for only streaming RU-vid, Netflix, and web browsing. No photos or any downloads. Want it for its easy portability. Will 64gb be enough? I also have iCloud storage, won’t be transferring anything over from my IPad Pro M2. Any advice will help greatly.

just got a refurb 256 gb for $400! thanks for the vid :)

Thanks for sharing 🐬

Great video! You have my sub and like! 🐬

Genuinely best iPad I've ever used

I actually think the bezzels on the ipad makes it looks more premium, more apple like also bc the bezzels are round

You are making want to buy this device!🐬

Great vid! Dolphin emoji!!!

Im on that reddit sub also 🙌🏼 great stuff

Thank you for sharing

Great video

i am in the "shall i wait for 7 or get the 6" category. i think if they 6 dropped in price a bit more i would get the 6 now. Currently a 64gb one on Apple store is £569 , although the cheapest new one i have seen outside Apple Store is £378. So maybe £378 is the lowest they will go ?

I agree with you, the iPad Mini is a great device. I had the iPad mini 4 for a few years. After it stopped getting updates for a couple years, I decided to go with the iPad Air in early 2022. I could get a much larger screen for $100 more by stepping up to the iPad Air. I didn't want the regular entry level iPad, and I felt that stepping up to the iPad Pro was overkill and unnecessary. I just figured that a larger screen would be easier on my much older eyes. I definitely do miss the much more portability advantage of the mini, but this works for me. I just wish Apple included the Pencil when you buy an iPad. Samsung includes the S-Pen with many of their tablets, including the new S9 FE. I realized a long time again that while purchasing many of Apple's devices is worth the investment, many of Apple's accessories are way overpriced and are a ripoff, especially when you can buy other brands that work just as well.

Get the cellular version it’s a much better deal even with 64Go of storage . Hope the iPad mini 7 will keep the touchID and will get a brighter miniled screen (Oled does not age well )

Is it true that this iPad mini 6 has anti glare screen?

THREE BODY PROBLEM!! I read the book trilogy and it's honestly so good!!

Sir i am interested to buy ipad mini but i m confused about 6 gen actually i want 9 gen and ipad mini 6 can update ios 17?

🐬🐬🐬 Great review!! Very helpful

Having been with Apple ecosystem ever since, I was rooting to get the iPad Mini 6 last March hoping for new low prices as a newer model was slated to roll out. But Samsung devices price cuts and discounts were too tempting. I ended up getting the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9+ complete with pencil, keyboard cover and ear buds2 pro.

Gotta get one

This video was very *porpoiseful* 🐬

Just bought it today. I find the battery drains pretty fast. Not sure which apps or settings are the culprits. I've already turned off background app refresh, Bluetooth is off, and my brightness is less than 50%. What am I missing?

Is the jelly scroll issue really as bad as what some people say?

4:52 Correction: it has 2 speakers, one on each side, and both speakers have 2 grills in case you are covering one of them with your hands in landscape mode, not just for “aesthetic purposes” (source: I have an iPad Mini 6)

I love the iPad mini. 🐬

Thanks!

🐬 mini 6 daily user love it

My quick & dirty contribution on how I use and why I like my Mini - (used with MBA & iPhone Pro) AMAZINGLY this iPad still works very well with very few glitches - even after having dropped this device innumerable # of times while traveling without fail. Of course the battery is not up to scratch but as I use it mainly in my Van Conversion or Hot Hatch etc - there is always a USB plug nearby. Off course it is slow - but not excrutiatingly slow. I have recently two sided taped a metal ring (MagSafe magnet compatible without the charge) so when the Mini is in Sidecar mode it works on the multiple magsafe magnets I have in the van. I will definitely wait & buy the Mini 7 when it comes out real SOON!?! The Mini is simply a great portable high performance device that sits between an iPhone & MBA. It is complimentary and is an essential device (for me when traveling) doing the tasks described above. I would NOT even consider any other iPad. The large variety of productivity & entertainment uses for the Mini demonstrates how versatile it can be for so many people. Master of Nun - But Good at a lot of stuff - Fine by me!!! I use my Mini exclusively when I "TRAVEL" - to do the following: (otherwise it sits in a drawer). 55% - as a GPS unit mounted to a RAM mount in my vehicles.- the best GPS "EVER"! I downloaded the "Navigon" app (a Garmin app) and spent $60 for all North American Map Data. This App has not been updated for 5 years now - but still works just fine - some newest roads are not displayed but who gives a Flying F (the iPhone fills the gap). That's after over 200K miles of road trips. FYI - lots of pilots use the Mini for realtime in-flight information 40% - as a Sidecar or screen mirroring when viewing YT & movies - it is mounted to a MagSafe style magnet stand. 4% - as an eReader 1% - miscellaneous tasks. This usage distribution may change when I buy the 7 - a/w the pencil - time will tell... I will certainly wait & buy the new Mini 7 when it comes out real SOON!?! The Mini is simply a great portable high performance device that sits between an iPhone & MBA. It is complimentary and is an essential device (for me when traveling) doing the tasks described above. I would NOT even consider any other iPad.

Should I get the mini 6 or wait for the mini 7?

I had an M1 iPad Pro 12,9", I sold it and got the iPad mini 6. It was the best decision for me, since I already have an M1 Pro 16" MacBook Pro. The big iPad Pro was just useless to me, since it was too big for "tablet usage". For me, the iPad mini is the perfect size tablet, everything bigger than that just feels uncomfortable to me..

I have the M1 iPad 11 inch Pro and a 10 Gen cellular lol People RAVE about the Mini 😩 I wish I had different sizes really bad Either a 13 inch or a mini haha

I want to know how they expect us to hold it with an edge to edge screen, the bezels are grip points. I know apple prefers form over function but come on.

accessories video please...

The only mistake I made getting the mini 6 was thinking 64gb was enough space >.

I'll hold back to get a new ipad mini. The Mini 6 feels too slow at this point. I've just returned it recently.

I love you.

what are you saying? Buy the Mini 6 or wait for the Mini 7? My ipad pro screen just broke

Completely agree 🐬

Getting this so me and my girlfriend can watch movies/shows while eating in my car 😊

I just got one for 150 bucks, crazy.

jelly scroll and 60hz display is not acceptable for me especially when using my iPhone, MBP and iPad back and forth

I definitely disagree on the mini being best for note taking. I have a pro 12.9 and frankly the way I take notes, it's perfect. It would be too annoying to constantly move around on it. Now if you're standing and taking notes, I would agree. But I don't ever do that in class.

🐬 The thing  Apple and also most people forget is that this tablet sice is really good for a lot of work environments. While the iPad Pro makes sense for specialized applications and professions. The iPad-Mini could be a game changer in stores, hospitals, warehouses etc. As a quick handheld solution to minimize paperwork. I was at a hospital lately where they used it for all necessary signings. After they stored everything in their server the doctors used it later for the operation to review the information quickly. I still think that a small tablet and perhaps your smartphone is all you need if your job requires a lot of traveling or walking from one place to another. Well some kind of better Palm-device 😂. The only thing that is missing is that apple should consider this thinking and spec them up too.

Just bought one at the Source for 450$. Hard to beat at that price and G7 will be closer to 700$. I plan using it for social media, web browsing and RU-vid. A15 is fine for this.

For content consumption there is nothing better.

I have: An IMac A MacBook AirPod Pros AirPod Pro Max Apple Watch iPhone 12 iPhone 15 iPad 9 And the IPad Mini 6 is my favorite device!

I am a student and how I wish I could afford one 😢

Spec for spec it’s pretty much a mini iPad Air.

wanted to buy it, but my experience with apple isnt good , its like they purposely make your phone unusable or need to repair had 2 apple phones before had same system problem exactly the month I bought them within 2 years. its like they make it unusable and the repair is almost 30% worth of a new phone so youll be forced to buy a new one.

I am watching your video using iPad mini 2 😅

if only apple learned from iPad mini 6 and applied them to the next iteration iPhone mini 😅

me personally I just use the MacBook pro. I already have a phone I don't need an assortment of tablets for anything.

iPad mini is great like all the other Apple devices but people are losing their sense of reality in terms of consumption… As a specie that needs to coexist with limited resources (in a limited resources planet 🧠) we are becoming ridiculous…

Should i wait for the ipad mini 7? 🐬

My mini iPad is my TV

I'd never get an iPad Pro when I can get an iPad mini and a mabook air...

🐬

i don't see myself upgrading no ipad

Is the 64gb enough?

Didn't really answer the question...

with iPad os I would never buy it. I already have an iPhone there is nothing that an iPad can offer me. But if you are an artist you can justify the purchase

Only an apple fanatic with more money than sense would buy an ipad pro to simply read emails and write afew documents.

😊❤

Mini>3

i really wish it should be cheaper, 64gb its so bad and 256gb its so overpriced
